^^^^^^^^^^ ^^^^^^
Hi, could someone please clarify this for me. I'm assuming that the
databases
must be on some sort of local network but that a client can query them via
TCP/IP. Or is there some other place that has the databases and allows one
to connect via a TCP/IP client (like gopher, I guess).
Thanks,
